Must be the perspective but the lane in between the two bike lanes look pretty narrow.:confused:

I wonder if they're slippery when wet. Does it rain much there?

Does it rain much in London? :eek:

:lol2:

If they're anything like the ones in Copenhagen they're coarse enough not to get slippery when wet.

I don't know about Europe, but the plastic lines and letters they put down here are slippery as shit.

Yeah, but we don't have bikes here.

Them ain't horses I'm trying to avoid on the road.

Try harder. ;)

We've almost given up rode riding. It used to be you'd get the occasional jack-ass swerving and laying on the horn but now it is some form of aggression pretty much every time out no matter how carefully you follow the rules of the road. A lot of cyclists ride like punks now feeding that violence. hmmm... sounds like a foru...

That's why I stopped riding. I'd consider riding again if I were armed. A bullet through the windshield amy make drivers think twice before hassling cyclists. And by hassling I mean throwing things, hitting from a moving car, side swiping, and general menacing.

The cat calls and honks are nothing.

Last year in Colorado they passed a law that a car passing a bicycle must give three feet clearance. That seems to have helped.

Amy sound like tough character. She not afraid of big cars. Bet she graduated from all-girls school in Afghanistan.

hahaha -

Whoa, you guys have serious problems over there! I knew bicycling wasn't as widespread in the states as it is in Denmark, but I had no idea motorists are acting hostilely towards bicycle riders.

Great idea. :thumbsup:
Especially if bikers are required to stick to roads where there's 3 feet to give.
